Since League of Legends has been launched by Riot Games, they never miss an opportunity to celebrate April Fool’s Day. Before article begins we recommend you to take a look at our prices on lol boost. Now let’s look at april first jokes over the years:

LEAGUE OF LEGENDS APRIL FOOL’S DAY 2009

At this year Riot Games announced Urf the Manatee as a champion for a beta test which was obvious April first joke.

LORE STORY

Despite the traditionally peaceful ways of his people, Urf, the Manatee, idolized the strength and prowess of Champions in the League of Legends and strived to become one. Of all the League’s Champions, there was none that Urf admired more than Jax, Grandmaster at Arms. Since the introduction of the arena, no man has forced the League of Legends to revise their regulations more often than Jax, and the self-proclaimed Grandmaster at Arms rattled off a streak of 152 consecutive wins. In order to compensate for the extreme power of this Champion, the League created special sanctions for Jax: He is only allowed to fight with weapons the League deems suitable. For now, that list includes a lamppost, a chicken’s foot, a spatula, a fishing rod and a cardboard tube.

In his admiration and pursuit to become a weapons master like Jax, Urf has equipped himself with the two great symbols of his Manatee heritage as his weapons: a fish (to symbolize the bounty and providence of the sea) and spatula (to pay homage to his people’s age-long pursuit for culinary mastery). Urf now begins his aquatic journey as the League’s first Manatee Champion, hoping one day he will have the opportunity to cross fish and spatula with chicken’s foot and lamppost.

Flippy Floppy
ACTIVE: Urf switches weapons between fish and spatula to accommodate the needs of his team. Attacks with fish deal damage over time, while attacks with Spatula deal instant damage.

Poseidon’s Gaze
ACTIVE: Urf calls upon the powers of the Manatee god, Poseidon, to notify his allies of a position on the Fields of Justice. Poseidon’s Gaze removes Fog of War.

Flop Strike
ACTIVE: Urf flops onto an enemy with massive destructive force. Urf must be directly next to an enemy to successfully execute this skill.

Omnisplash
ACTIVE: Urf calls upon the elements to bring forth a destructive deluge of water. All nearby enemies take water damage and are briefly impaired in movement.

But Urf the Manatee did not appear…

LEAGUE OF LEGENDS APRIL FOOL’S DAY 2010

This year players received explanation why they couldn’t play as Urf The Manatee last year: he was murdered by by Warwick while he was guarding rivers on the Summoner’s rift:

Unfortunately, today, the story of Urf Day took a tragic turn, for as Urf was swimming along, dutifully guarding the river in the Summoner’s Rift, he met with a tragic demise. Eye-witness accounts have been unreliable at best, but everyone seems to agree that just before it happened a blue streak was seen darting out of the nearby jungle. A great clamor ensued, followed by the doleful screams of a manatee done wrong. In the end, all that was left of this brave prince amongst sea cows was his skin… and even that was stolen by this most nefarious of perpetrators.

Now any good story needs a moral. So if there’s anything that the story of Urf Day and the story of the Big Bad Wolf have in common, it’s this: deep within every wolf, there is a cunning master of disguise just waiting to get out. Take WarwickSquare.png Warwick, for instance; a giant, bloodthirsty werewolf able to cunningly adapt by blending into even the most innocent of surroundings. He could be anywhere at any time… behind a rock, in the brush, in the jungle, or cleverly masquerading as a lovable, spatula-wielding manatee.

But as compensation to players Riot Games offered to buy an ultimateWarwick’sUrf The Manatee skin with99% discount only for50 RP:

If you want to ensure that your Blood Hunter appears completely inconspicuous to even the most wary of foes, be sure to snatch up the Urf the Manatee skin, on sale now in the League of Legends store. Now, you’ve all heard about Legendary skins. And so, in light of the recent events, Marketing has determined that the Urf the Manatee skin is now even more Legendary than we had originally anticipated. As such, Warwick’s WarwickSquare.png Urf the Manatee skin will be available at the cost of 5,000 RP. However, in the interests of giving everyone the opportunity to pay their respects to this magnificent mammal, Marketing has also agreed to offer this tribute to his splendor at 99% off for one week only. That’s right: I said 99% off! At a cost of only 50 RP, you have no reason to shirk paying tribute to the passing of this brave soul!

During the second week of availability, the Urf the Manatee skin will be purchasable for 500 RP (still not a bad deal, considering that’s 90% off). And on Urf’s final day, if you haven’t yet snatched him up, you’ll have one final chance to do so for 5000 RP. So hurry and fire up the League of Legends store, already! It’s Urf Day!Urf the Manatee’s final resting place is the Skins section of the Store. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the victim’s family.”R.I.P. Urf the Manatee April 1st, 2009 – April 1st, 2010.

P.S. Riot Games donated the earning from skin sales to a charitable organization – SaveTheManatee organization.

Urf joke become so popular that it was started to be used each year.

An accidental coincidence!
